Rain has kept me from getting out there, I am hoping for good tomorrow. I am using a ball peen hammer and no dolly at all. Need to get one, just don't know where to get one.

I think the hammer and dolly set I am using is a Harbor Freight $30 or Northern tool would also have reasonable tools. You really need the dolly to roll the metal around it and prevent stretching. You can hammer right against the dolly to flatten and hammer "off dolly" to shape. We have about the same weather as you; its like living in Seattle recently...

I have officially given up welding. Gonna have a pro do it I guess.

Oh well. I am sure it will be nice to get it done...
